Around SBN: Trent Richardson Interviews Fellow Brown Brandon Weeden

Undrafted FA's

Lot's of dudes didn't get draft that hoped they would - seniors and early entrants. Which of those guys would you like to see competing for a spot at [theoretical] camp this fall?

Here's my short list:

Scotty Hopson (TENN): Mostly because I think his retro high-top fade brings along certain intangibles. His offensive game is mostly at the rim and has a serviceable outside game; defensively he has the right size/speed/length combination to guard the mega-tweeners of the Shawn Marion variety. Basically I think of him as Dante Cunningham, but substitute rebounding and some defense for some ballhandling and offensive game.

Justin Holiday (UW): Lot's of leadership, good perimeter defense and versatile offensive player. Can shoot decently from 3pt and very solid from midrange, can run the break and defend bigger players. Nic Batum-lite, except he's less likely to fade in-and-out on the offensive side of thins.

Greedy Peterson: A better name than Bismack Bayombo by far.

I liked Greg Smith

Nobody drafted him, I don’t know why and hopefully he can prove everyone wrong.
